    Amateurs (joking)

    It's the blue! It's too dark to the TT version.
    That's how you know.

    FFS if you paying us$160 the authentic one is just $250 delivered.

    Waste of time. People expect to pay KO prices for KO products.

    Takara MP11 starscream ko has already been released. Not by Kubinbao (who already said they weren't making it) factory is Ao Feng. About $150AUD.
    Be careful on ebay, paint is the same and box is labeled Takara Tomy.
    I have one coming, will post comparison pics between Tk, Has & Ko

    Thanks for the heads up on this...

    ...although I don't understand why anyone would be getting excited about KO Transformers

    I would urge people not to buy these as you are only encouraging the counterfeiters to make more...

    It depends though, if you bought a weijiang Ko which makes an entirely upgrade product you be amazed.

    If the Ko is just to replicate the original then is not worth it but saying that Takara should have reissue them before having the need for these.

    I kinda see what your getting at but it still doesn't justify stealing from Takara/Hasbro in my opinion...

    If someone like myself who has been collecting Transformers since 1985 was to start adding KO's to their collection apart from the moral side of things I'd have to ask myself; Am I collecting Transformable Robots or Transformers?

    like I said just my opinion...each to their own

    Ask yourself why Ko like these happen and you know why.
    How much is mp-11? $250
    Skywarp? $400
    Sunstorm? $300

    Now ask yourself if you are a collector and you wait 4 years and TT did nothing to reissue, what would you do if you really want one and there aren't options left?

    I nearly went for a Ko mp-10 and I waited 4 years till it only reissue it. I wouldn't think about a Ko if TT reissue them. There are new collectors every year and some are bound to want and miss a critical piece.

    They can always do a make to pre order like what Arcadia does for Macross toys.

    As for this topic, there are some that only show the replica image of TT version and I have doubts is the actual toy. I will wait for the pics as the member has bought one.

    Won't chat about stealing design as the original g1 took a lot of copied bots and made them tfs. I like to keep everything positive here so please just beware of fake production of mp-11 if you were thinking it was a good deal

    Some shots of the KO -- seems to have the same kinds of problems that affected the KO MP-10.
